Kevin removed a 12m Mexcian Fan palm for me (difficult and spiky *and* in the wet). He provided a quote and a tax invoice *and* I didn't have to pay 'cash in the hand' either. He was by far the best value of the three quotes I asked for. Very reliable; would highly recommend!

John is friendly, dependable and trustworthy. He has a firm understanding of what needs to be done; *he picks up his phone when I called him* and most importantly, he does excellent work at a reasonable price. It's no wonder that his services are required all over Sydney because he's clearly a man in demand. Although I hired him for small and medium-sized jobs I'll be he's great at the big ones too. Highly recommended.

ADMINS: you might want to change this to prevent other customers getting disappointed (and annoying the poor guy who owns this number.
Matthew paved a precision side path for me. Took the extra care to ensure it stands the test of time (and explained to me how he did this). He is friendly, punctual, clean (lays down mats for the materials and takes ALL of the rubbish away himself) & reasonably priced.
He even unexpectedly replaced grass that died during the work! Highly recommended!

Wanted the central locking repaired. It took 5 seperate visits to the garage and the car is still in the same state now as it was when I initially bought it to them. I'm cutting my losses. They spent countless hours on it and needed to order a spare part; they claim they lost money on it due to the time-consuming nature of the repair...and of course my car was a "difficult" model (even though it's extremely common). It was excuse after excuse and I don't know what to believe. The yard is filled with cars so obviously business is booming. Also, their "front-of-house" experience needs lots of work in terms of responsiveness and general professionalism.

Jared at Midas Concord has earned repeat business for my Swift and my Golf. He always strives to reduce the cost of any repairs both in terms of time and money for me. He and his team have even fixed issues some "prestige" mechanics could not! As long as Jared is in my area he has firmly established himself as my mechanic of choice. Jared is courteous to both myself and my wife and takes the time to explain in simple terms what work the car needs on it and why. Whether it's for a full service or just a rego check I would recommend Midas Concord to anyone who drives a car and needs someone to work on it occasionally.

Luke from Rapidplumb provided honest advice and presented me with several options when I replaced the taps in my bathroom and added a laundry facility to my garage. He was punctual, reliable, friendly and above all, the quality of his work was impeccible. All people I show his work to are suitably impressed. I have no hesitation in recommending Rapidplumb to anyone and they have firmly established themselves as "my plumber".
